1x03 Two Boats and a Helicopter

I'm still not sure how I feel about this series but this episode at least sparkled more interest for the characters.

The priest seems like a complex character, deeply flawed, morally dubious (though he might disagree), behaving like he thinks he's a martyr at times.

The sister seems promising. The fact that she called him on his bullshit awarded her some good points.

The quest to save the church seemed doomed from the beginning but the way they made it seem more possible as the story went on was very entertaining. Plus, the episode title kept me thinking of how exactly would he fail. For instance, during the dream I thought his church might be turned into a different denomination so that it would fulfill the objective but not in the way he had planned, like the story he told in the beginning.

Then his underlying good nature gets the best of him not once but twice. That made me laugh way more than it should have. And now I'm wondering what's he gonna do with the money other than paying that poor woman. And if he banged the sheriff's wife.

Finally, I have mixed feelings about Janel Moloney. I mean, she's gonna have lines at some point, right? It would be terrible if she'd only been in it to serve as a cross for the priest to carry. It'll be great to see her otherwise.
